Facial Recognition

Well I holiday in far Cathay for a wee bit o' diddle I doh
Some gribbling here, some grobbling there cannae hurt if the state don’t know
Ah scritch ma bossocks oot on the street and I thump in a tuckerbag
Woggle ma grussets and I gander chits, and sploon in a fumblerag
But facial recognition has today got sae advanced
That they speak ma name and they ken ma game in the legislative branch
Well damn yer social credit scheme, and damn yer cameras too
Now I cannae micklemuckle nor joggle ma crane or the government may know
And if the government knows I scrope ma moes ma credit score is screwed
And I won’t be suffered to take nae trains nor eat nae Chinese food
I’ll be banned frae the banks, the interwebs and the dating agencies
And Ah’ll huf te bide alane in ma room a-grolloping ma screes
Well I holiday in far Cathay but next year I’m off tae Spain
If you scrutch your muckles or yer goolies there the affair is yours alane
You can swing your bossocks oot on the street, gie your bunt a grobberling
But I hear they’re slinging up cameras soon to catch up with Beijing
Ah facial recognition is sae widely installed
That you cannae woggle grussets anywhere noo across this foggy world
I’d scritch ma bossocks oot on the street and thump in a tuckerbag
Woggle ma grussets, gander chits and sploon in a fumblerag
But facial recognition is sae widely unfurled
That ye cannae do anything noo anywhere in the world
